Have you ever felt the crushing weight of trials—like loss, waiting, or financial stress? In this episode, we explore what it means to count it all joy when your faith is tested. Trials aren’t signs of failure—they’re God’s tools for spiritual growth, producing patience, strength, and maturity in every believer.

💡 Key Themes Covered:

• Your Faith Will Be Tried: Why deliverance isn’t always what we need—and how patience completes us (James 1:2–4).

• We Have a Promise: Romans 8:28 reminds us that God works all things for good—nothing is wasted in His plan.

• The Lord is Our Deliverer: Learn how David found peace when fear gripped his heart (Psalm 34), and how we can too.

• The Lord Has All Power: Jesus holds all authority—His power is our strength to face the impossible (Matthew 28:18; Acts 1:8).

• Give Jesus Your Cares: Let go of anxiety and rest in Christ’s easy yoke and light burden (Matthew 11:28–30).

• Some Problems Are Self-Inflicted: How to reflect, repent, and receive God’s mercy when we’ve caused our own pain.

🔥 Whether you’re in the middle of a storm or climbing out of one, this episode will help you see trials through a biblical lens: as a refining fire, not a punishment.

🎯 Key Takeaway:

Trials refine us. Faith empowers us. God’s promises assure us. Trust Him, submit to His will, and rest in His goodness—because He’s working all things together for your eternal good.
